He kept us in the game. With his play and had we made plays when we had to, we win the game.

I think they ran out of gas in the third period. They played back-to-back nights and we played really hard in the third period. We were really disappointed with our first two periods.

I hope tonight was an off night. We've been playing well and a win over Detroit would have been huge.

adam compete definitely guy hard knew players push team
This is definitely a big step. I knew our team was going to get better this year, with or without Adam Foote. Now, with the free-agent market, we get a guy like Adam. He will push our players to be better and they're going to compete hard every night.

Coming in here we didn't think we were going to get five goals on Luongo. I didn't expect a 5-4 game. I was thinking 3-2 or 2-1.
players
They (the fans) are disappointed. I am disappointed and our players are disappointed.
